Second chapter: The poisoned mysterious tree and a greedy lion
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto
OK then, back in the last chapter, they were about to pair someone for Sasuke...Who could it be?
"Ok then...Neji goes with ten-ten and Sasuke goes with Sakura..." said Lee
Ino's mouth opened and tried to contradict but Sasuke began walking to the forest....
Lee began pairing the others as the one already paired began walking to different directions....
Sakura caught up with Sasuke...
"Hey Sasuke! I was wondering if we find the way, how are we going to tell the others?" asked Sakura
Sasuke didn't answer....
Sakura leaned closer to Sasuke....
Sasuke backed away....
"I don't like you! Ok? It's Ino that I like! Not you!" said Sasuke....
Sakura looked down....
"Do I have any chance?" asked Sakura
"No! None! No chance at all!" answered Sasuke, staring at Sakura...
Sakura's spirits got down....
"This is the reason why I didn't like to go with you! Because I know you would just flirt with me...Let's separate, okay? So we could stop from fighting" said Sasuke
And without even waiting for Sakura's answer, he went to the opposite direction.
Sakura got scared and went around....
After 30 minutes of walking, Sakura was tired and knew that she was lost...
She sat down under the tree and cried...
[I can't believe it! I'm lost! And Sasuke! He talked to me like that! I can't believe it! Maybe I really have no chance with Sasuke....I'll just wait here and wait for someone to come by...] thought Sakura
Sakura waited for an hour, still no sign of someone....
Another hour, someone will come by soon...
Another hour, maybe they just got into some sort of fights and will soon be here...
Just then, someone did come by....But not who Sakura is expecting...Better yet, not what Sakura is expecting....
The lion growled at Sakura......
Sakura stood up......
The lion was getting closer.....
Sakura tried to back away but remembered that there was a tree behind her......
She screamed....
She knew she was going to die....She waited for the attack...But it didn't come... She opened her eyes and looked around...
Sasuke was there, wrestling with the lion...
Sakura stood up as soon as Sasuke finished wrestling with the lion.
Sasuke panted.....
Sakura got her bag and began walking...
"Where are you going?" asked Sasuke, following Sakura
"Remember what you said? That we should split up?" said Sakura, frowning at Sasuke.......
Sasuke shrugged
"Well, we are teammates aren't we? So I should not let anything happen to you..." said Sasuke....
To his surprise, Sakura did not giggle or blushed or smiled or anything she would usually do whenever he would do something for her....She just kept on walking...
It was almost 2 in the afternoon and Sakura and Sasuke still hasn't eaten...
After a while, they found a stream full of fresh water...
Sakura and Sasuke began drinking...
After they drank, they felt that they needed to rest...
Sasuke sat down near the stream....
Sakura ran down the stream and began playing with the water....
Sasuke was shocked...Usually, Sakura would sit down beside him and flirt...but this was different...
"Sakura?" asked Sasuke....
"Why?" asked Sakura, swimming under the water...
"Why are you acting so differently?" asked Sasuke...
Sakura got out of the water and searcher throught her bag for her towel.
"Great! I just lost my towel!"
"Were you saying something?" said Sakura
Sasuke gave Sakura his towel and said 'Nothing'
Sakura began wipping herself with the towel...
After a few minutes silence...
"Come on, Sasuke...Let's go find some food...I'm starving" said Sakura as she got up and began walking, Sasuke following her....
As they were walking, no food was in sight, they've been searching for hours and hours, until Sakura found a tree full of mysterious fruits...
Sakura began to climb the tree but then Sasuke stopped her.
"Sakura! Those fruits must be poisonous! I think it's best if you don't eat them." Said Sasuke...
Deep inside, Sakura was happy for all the things Sasuke was doing for her, but she wanted to forget about him because of his every rejection...She felt like she was a doggy of Sasuke...And she was tired of that...She knew that Sasuke loved Ino and she has no chance of being Sasuke's girl, so now, she didn't really care.
"Like you care! Then don't eat it! I don't care if it's poisoned....No one cares anyway!" bragged Sakura as she got a fruit and took a bite...
Not less than a second, Sakura fainted and fell down the tree but luckily, Sasuke caught her.
"Sakura? Are you okay? Sakura! Wake up! Please speak..." said SAsuke, laying Sakura down in the ground.
She was unconscious...
Sasuke carried her back to the stream where their bags are...
He fixed their sleeping bags and layed Sakura in hers.
As he was fixing her pillow, he couldn't help but notice that Sakura was actually, kinda pretty...
[Now where did that come from?] asked Sasuke himself and shook his head. [Stop! Don't think like that!] he continued to think as he fixed Sakura's sleeping bag.
It was still a little early, 7 pm that is, and Sasuke can't go to sleep.
His stomach was growling, he and his teammate was lost in the forest and Sakura is poisoned....
How could I possibly sleep? He asked himself.
After a while, he looked at Sakura again.
He couldn't help but notice that she was very pretty.
Just then, he remembered that he had an antidote in his backpack...
He searched for it and found it...
He held Sakura up and let her drink the antidote....
She wasn't really swallowing so it was hard...But in the end. He managed to...I don't know how....
Sasuke threw the empty bottle and looked at Sakura...
Just then, he saw that Sakura's face really meshed well together with the light of the moon...
He didn't knew why he always rejected Sakura when now, it's as if he wants to tell Sakura that he liked h-
Sasuke felt the urge to stop what he is about to say....
Then, he heard a sound from the bushes...
He looked at to see what it was
He was getting nearer, approaching with caution
Then, when he was very near the bushes, the thing jumped out and got hold of Sasuke....it was a.....
Hahahaha! Another cliffhanger....Will Sasuke die? Will Sakura live? Will the end of the world be evolved?? Hahahaha! Next chapter coming up....
